Steering Dampners?

[Tumbleweed]

Do any of you run them? I was looking at the W. E. R. brand and I see some others as well, are they worth it? Will they help my front end stay tight (second, new 400 EX) What say you EX Riders?

[dhines]

You can do a search and answer your first question (yes many people run them and yes they are absolutely worth it).

As to the WER damper, you won't find nearly as many people running it due to cost. I have actually run one and I really can't say that I liked it. The damping simply wasn't nearly stiff enough - it felt like I didn't even have it on there. I have moved back to the cheaper (~$125) Denton option for the time being. It is nice, but definitely not the best option out there.

If price is not a limiting factor I would recommend either the GPR or the Scotts. I would really prefer to run the Scotts, but it won't fit my machine with the extended IMS tank. So I'm kind of stuck for the moment...

Best,

Dennis

For a good price lots of people like to run the Denton dampner. I Have a PEP and Like it a lot.

I have a PEP and I wouldnt ride without one. It keeps you from getting arm pump ( not so bad) Because this way the bars arent jerkig around so much.

I have a denton and after about 380 of desert riding it feels like it needs to be rebuilt do you guys know if denton stabilizers are rebuildable?

[Silverfox@C&DRacing]

Depends on which one you have they make a rebuildable and non rebuildable. I have not seen a non rebuildable to tell you how you can tell I can only say that the rebuildable costs more..

[YLW400]

Could you shoot me some prices on all rebuildable ones only Silverfox? Thanks!!!

I have a denton stabilzer and i love it..Helps so much on the breaking bumps

[KY Woods Rider]

A steering stabilizer is definitely a help. Although it isn't as dramatic an improvement as aftermarket shocks or motor mods, it does make going fast a little easier. It really helps when you hit a hole or bump that you weren't really ready for.

The WER is well built, but there's one problem, it costs way too much to keep my wallet happy.

I'm still running one of the old style PEP stabilizers and I don't have any complaints so far.

[rob-u/21]

I know denton makes a black one and an aluminume colored one. Do you guys know which one is the rebuildable one.

[nuttynewt]

The aluminum one is the rebuildable one.

[AndrewRRR]

Denton makes the Steel (black) and Alloy (silver). The alloy is rebuildable and about $160, the steel is non rebuildable and it's like $130.
I'm getting an alloy when I get some extra money (blew out my non rebuildable PEP last season).

Here is the rebuildable Denton Damper.

Get one you're gonna need it! Once you get it, you'll wonder why you waited so long to get one. I have a Denton. :D
